The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

..... vegetables aren't cooked in stock...?
huh. I never knew that. Guess I've been doing it wrong all these years.
The most obvious example of this is a pot roast. personally, I go with the roast, carrots, roasting potatoes, a fine-chopped onion and some fine-chopped fennel bulb. red wine, stock that matches the protein (beef with beef, chicken with chicken, pork with pork.) wine of your choice, and some butter. When everything is done, deglaze the pot, strain the remaining stock and thicken it with either a cornstartch slurry or blond to brown roux for gravy.
you can also do the vegetables separately from the meat, using the stock to enhance and deepen the flavors- for example, a vegetable stock with some wine, garlic, butter and olive oil with both keep the vegetables from drying out under higher heat while accelerating the maillard reaction so they can get that perfect bit of browning on top without overcooking, while the wine adds a bit of lightness to the heavy-savory flavors.
What is generally considered roasted vegetables aren't cooked in liquid. There's nothing wrong with cooking vegetables in liquid, but most people wouldn't call them roasted. Even if the vegetables are in a pot roast.
